Welcome to Indigo Inklings. This is where I talk about some of my rubber stamping projects and digital graphics. My blog name comes from the fact that I love the color indigo, and I think the notion of inklings covers my introspective side as well as my love for getting inky with my projects. I hope you find something here to interest or inspire you.

Arrow - Wednesday Stamper

This week's challenge on the Wednesday Stamper is to work with arrows. Now, this one stumped me because I don't use arrows often. I'm not sure I can remember the last time I've used one, if ever. Here's my attempt to work arrows into a card design.

The image is from I Brake for Stamps, though I'm not sure which company. I colored it with Prismacolor colored pencils and blended with my Goo Gone Mess-Free pen instead of mineral spirits, just for fun. The wrapped arrow is grungeboard colored with pigment ink and then stamped with that same pear image. I improvised the other arrows out of beading twine. The embossing was made with the Cuttlebug Stylized Flowers embossing folder.
